HIGH TRIBUTE PAID LEGION
(Continued from rage One)
we knew that we were victorious and
a new thrill of enthusiasm passed Into
the ranks of our soldiers.
"And, finally, when the armistice
was signed, you wore by our side, with
the French and Hritish divisions reudy
to give the last push and to clear the
road to Iirussells for our beloved King
Albert."
Commander Knifrj'ii Speech.
KANSAS CITT, .Mo., Oct. 31. The
issue of national adjusted compensa
tion for tiie ex-service man ha3 not
been at all settled, John G. Emory,
national commander of t lie American
lesion, declared here today In bis ad
dress opening the third annual con
vention of the legion.
"Such moans as were used last
summer to beat adjusted compensa
tion cannot ultimately succeed," Com
munder Emery told the Legion.
"Nothing la nettled until It is settled
right.
"The American people are the
court of Inst resort and wherever the
American people have by the ballot
pnssed judgment on the matter of ad
Juried compensation, that Judgment
has been an endorsement of the le
gion's stand.
"t cannot coneelvo of a congress so
derelict in Its duty, so unmindful of
Uh Just obligation to tlio.se who serv
ed their country at great - financial
loss, or, so blind to' tho wishes of our
people aa to be misled again into re
fusing to ndjust the economic balance
between the man who went to war
and the man who did not."
Commander Kmery reported that
"In tho face of adverso industrial
conditions, which have hit the ex-service
men harder than any other class,
tho legion has gained In strength and
its finnneial position has steadily im
proved." lie suggested that tho political
clause In the legion's constitution,
which "will not permit any one who
holds or Is seeking a salaried elective
public office to hold office in tho Le
gion or In any department or post
thereof bo extended to Include ap
pointive offices, lie added that he
felt that "no person In public life, in
community, statu or nation, should be
allowed to speak for the. Legion, and
that tho LcHion must bo allowed to
continue to speak for Itself when is
sues involving service men nre con
cerned, and then in terms which all
the world will understand."
Commander Emery paid high trib-
ulo to. tho -late Commander-Frederic
W, Gnlbralth, Jr., who was killod in
an automobile accident.; Ho said his
ono aim had been to carry .through
tho great program which Commander
Galbraith hud left unfinished. .
A notable publio service of the past
year, Commander Emery pointed out.
was the "frustration of a iiation-wido
Gorman propaganda campaign in the
United States." This, ho said, was. to
start with a series of "Rhine Horror"
meetings.
Answered Von Much.
'The notorious propagandist, Von
Mnch, believed he had so cleverly con
cealed ills motivoH that lie nsked Gal
braith to speak at tho first Rhine
Horror meeting at Madison Square
Garden," Commander Emery said.
"As you will remember, Galbraith did
not wait Hint long before ho spoke. Ho
told Von Much on the spot what he
thought of him and his project. Tho
legion prepared Immediately to or
ganise counter demonstrations where-
over tiie pro-Germans might carry out
their prc-coneeived program. Most
of-those meetings were nover hold,
however, for Von Marh abandoned his
scheme after ono disastrous attempt
at Madison Square Garden." 1
The greatest Legion achievement of
the year Commander Emery said, was
won for the disabled service men. its
vigorous efforts resulting in creation
of the veterans' bureau.
"The lat national work under
taken by the teguiu lias been for the
relief of comrudCH who are unem
ployed," Commander Emery con
tinued. - "It is a duty of the legion to
extend every aid to tiieso comrades
and a duty which I know the legion
will not fail to perform," lie said.
Abroad. Commander Emery report
ed that a movement was on foot in
France to consolidate the numerous
veterans' associations there into one
united and effective body. "It is a
singular tribute to us that the name
proposed for the new organization Is
Legion Franeaise," he noted. "In
Great Jiritain, too. tho American Lo
gion is the pattern after which the
ex-service groups are being reformed
and brought together under the name
of the Hritish Legion.
"Tomorrow morning." he continued
"there will be called to order in Kan
sas City, another great convention.
convention which means the dawn of
a new day in the making of better
America. The women's auxiliary of
th American Legion, with possibili
ties unbounded, is about to become an
aeeimplished fact, Independent and
sell governing, a worthy compatriot
of the legion."

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31. Permis
sion was given tho Valley und Siletz
Railroad company by tho interstate
commerce commission to issue $700,
000 in capital stock against its lines in
Oregon for the purpose of paying off
funded debts.
PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 31 The
Valloy and Siletz Railroad company
owns a road of 39 miles from Indepen
dence to Siletz, Oro. It is doing busi
ness as a common carrier, but more
particularly in developing the timber
holdings of Cobbs,nnd Mitchell.
At tho Portland office of the Valley
and Siletz Railroad company it was
said that the action of the inter-state
commerce commission in authorizing
tho Issue of $700,000 in capital stock
refers to a transfer of non-negotiable
promissory notes, covering cost of
completing tlte railway; , hold by the
trustee for an equivalent in the com
pany's capital stock, which recently
was increased from $300,000 to $1,000,
000. No extension of the r railway
toward tho coasD ds contemplated im
mediately, it was said. . . , .

DARING JAIL BREAK
DUBLIN'. Oct. 31. Four Irish wom
en, political prisoners in Mountjoy
prison, this city, escaped last night.
One of them, Linda Hears, a nurse,
was serving a sentence of ten years.
The escape was affected by means
of a rope bidder thrown across tho
prison wall and the fugitives clam
bored down a steep embankment com
pleting the most daring jull delivery
in the history of Mountjoy.
With aircraft for spotting purposes

TODAY!
Apples in some sections of the coun
ty that have anthracnose should be
sprayed in the fall with Bordeaux.
Tliero may bo a few growers who have
not yet applied this spray on adcount
of harvesting the appio crop. Unless
this application i3 mado soon it will
not be effective against anthracnose.
Tills spray to be effective should be
Willi Bordeaux.
Peaches, cherries . and apricots
should bo sprayed at this time with
Bordeaux mixture for tho California
peach blight fungus. This Is a disease
that docs a great deal or damage to
stono fruits in this county and it can
be controlled very readily by spraying
applied as early in tho fall as is .pos
sible after crop is off.
For both stone fruits and apples use
0 pounds of bluestone and G pounds of
good lime to 50 gallons of water. Dis
solve bluestone in separate barrel and
slako lime separately, then add water
to each sufficiently to make up enough
for the tank. Then add diluted blue
stone and lime solutions to the spray
tank at tho same time. Do not add
bluestone to lime solution or vice
versa. Both should go into tank at the
same time. Keep up good agitation
and spray all parts of the trees.
The addition of three ounces of
sugar to a two hundred gallon tank
will preserve tho keeping quality of
tile Bordeaux mixture for a few days
in case spray is made up and cannot be
applied immediately.
